Rating metrics: Help Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some tracks can have several thousand ratings)

This track is rated in the top 2% of all tracks on BestEverAlbums.com. This track has a Bayesian average rating of 83.7/100, a mean average of 84.0/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 84.5/100. The standard deviation for this track is 11.6.

Wow, a sonic feast. How do you ever come up with such a composition. Mind blowing.

Very jazzy intro followed by quintessential Yes. With the added flavour of Moraz, especially in the last three minutes. Which I absolutely love (while he had to fill some big shoes).

Pretty much perfect except for the excessive Steve Howe showy-offy guitar bit nearish the middle
